Earlier this year, there were reports of an epic battle sequence between Kunal as Indra and Yash as Raavan. While Kunal says it is “too early" to delve into the film’s details, he adds, “It is going to be a spectacle on a scale that nobody has seen before. It will be very special. It’s up for release only late next year."
Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana stars Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram and Sai Pallavi as Sita. While Yash plays the antagonist, Raavan, Sunny Deol will reportedly be seen as Lord Hanuman. The film will also feature Lara Dutta as Kaikeyi and Sheeba Chaddha as Manthara. Ravi Dubey will be seen as Lakshman, and Arun Govil will play King Dasharatha.
As for the film’s release, Ranbir Kapoor and Nitesh Tiwari have locked Diwali 2026 and Diwali 2027 for Ramayana Part 1 and Ramayana Part 2, respectively. As per reports, the second part of the franchise will also be shot this year by October.
